Terry Farley 'Die 4 U' (Bonanza Records)
Terry Farley is British house royalty: he’s been responsible for some amazing music and is also a driving force in the cult Junior Boy’s Own label. ‘Die 4 U’ has all the elements needed for suitable club fodder, from the skipping beat and bendy bass to acid murmurings and a diva vocal. Horse Meat Disco’s Severino and Nico De Ceglia from Hyena Stomp take it to a shady afterparty for some late-night debauchery by concentrating on the track’s darker tones, before Alkalino serves up a funky acid mix and Bonanza’s own Handzoff adds enormous snare rolls for a peak-time rework.
